Saw one of my fish chomping away on this today - any ideas what it is?  Looks like the remains of something - yuk :o(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v168/gardengirl2004/A4A%20photos/Fish.jpg)

Hi Pat.Do you have frogs in your pond? It looks like the remains of one,that died a while ago and has now decomposed!

Then again,it could be anything!! Anyone else like to have a stab!!

We do have frogs Margaret - loads of them.  The fish was shaking it around like a dog with a rabbit - it looks like a shed skin of something.

We have found frogs in the past, the Koi skin them. Still look like frogs butwhite cos no skin and they have fingers too! (No webbing left) they don`t eat them all so scoop them out. If a bird then we have always found feathers left.
